RE: Anyone not taken a deer this year?
Sorry, I've killed 7 and the main couple of guys I hunt with (my dad and my boy MDS) have killed another 9. I could e-mail you guys some backstraps. jj I stil have 3 1/2 weeks left so I am looking for some big horns with my bow or muzzleloader during the late season.
We have been very fortunate this season.
You still have some time left just be persistant, atany givensecond on any givendayyour whole seasoncan change!

As many deer as there are in Oklahoma, I am truly shocked that you haven't scored yet. I live in Texas but have a place north of Cherokee, OK, and we are over run with deer. My son killed an 8 point and doe during muzzleloader, and my buddy and I both took does. My brother and his buddy both took does also. We were all looking for big horns and could find what we wanted, so we will wait until next year.
I guess my question to your post is; have you not seen any deer or are you just picky like me?

2 nice does for me. Bow and muzzleloader kills. I tried to get a buck but didn't see a good enough one. Stick with it and be persistent. It will pay off eventually. Keep learning and have fun.

More than three does, more than two bucks. That doesn't count the two deer that miraculously resurrected and escaped. I shot them, they stayed down a minute, and then while I fumbled with ramrod and dropped primers, they recovered & skeddaldled. I hated that.
Other than that... been good. I like the new Marlin!
